Thanks to the Internet, all sixties music including very obscure tracks not easily accessible in the past is very accessible now. It's easier than ever for anyone to listen to old music.

Like you the Sixties is also my favourite decade for music, but I think if most kids today listened to it they'd just find it old fashioned and not very appealing - even artists as good as the Beatles. Let today's kids have their own music, as awful as you or I might find it.

I used to listen to exclusively to chart music, got a bit fed up with it, and decided to make an effort to listen to stuff from older generations. I was amazed as I found myself listen to stuff from the 40's, 50's and 60's, and in doing so it actually put me off a lot of today's music!

Don't get me wrong, I still love a lot of chart music, but I discovered there is a lot more out there

I genuinely cannot stand The Beatles and hate the insinuation that nothing since could or has ever come close. There is a wealth of modern music that is more than equal to or good as you just gotta look for it.

The cultural significance of The Beatles is well documented and evidenced and they were a very popular chart group.
On the other hand The Velvet Underground sold very few records in their time but have almost as much cultural influence as John, Paul, Ringo and Bert. I don't have any problem recognising the significance of both.

I've listening a lot to Slint recently and in future they may get similar recognition to VU, no guarantee of course. My bet is Nine Inch Nails are the real innovators and Gaga has more to offer but it could be that 1D or that twerp Bieber will have the lasting cultural influence. Life ain't it?

Im a bit fed up with current music and the dross that is generated , so much so, that I dug out my old LP collection especially THe Beatles. What a joy and totally brillant.

Young people of today should be made to lsten to old Beatles LP's like Please please Me , Help, Revolver, rubber soul and my favourite Beatles for sale and Abbey Road.

Anybody else out there a bit like me or are all good music lovers destined to listen to Rap crap for the rest of or lives.

Its time music returned to 60's music.

There are some some really talented female artists making music around today that is just as good as the 60s stuff. Acts like Caro Emerald, Paloma Faith, Joss Stone, Florence And The Machine, Lianne La Havas who would all have fitted into the 60s and made a big name for themselves had they been around then..

I'm not a 60s snob at all but two things about that list and I like most of those artists (not Joss Stone).

One, good artists yes but all a bit retro (not necessarily a bad thing but not innovators and surprised you didn't mention Amy Winehouse or Adele). Two, really could any of them touch the garments of Dusty Springfield, Aretha Franklin or Tina Turner?

No they shouldn't! Young people of today should be encouraged to listen to various things but not made to! That is the quickest way to switch young people off! Anyway most people find their musical way eventually !
